Stretch Code Training: Commercial Buildings
This event has ended.
Both Portland and South Portland have adopted Maine’s Energy Stretch Code for all new residential and commercial buildings. In order to help people understand and comply with this code, we teamed up with Kim Cheslak, Director of Codes at the New Buildings Institute to offer two trainings, one focused on residential buildings and the second focused on commercial buildings.
Kim Cheslak is the Director of Codes for New Buildings Institute. She has over 10 years of experience focusing on buildings and codes. Her career has included commercial and residential code compliance studies, working with local governments to maximize savings through adoption of and compliance with code, and managing sustainability portfolios. Kim was instrumental in the formation of Washington DC’s Green Building Division. She supports NBI’s broader engagement in code development, with an emphasis on stretch codes and multifamily code adoption.
